Take a look at this funny list of little liars to see what we mean. Compiled by Bored Panda, the examples below serve as an important reminder that if you really must insist on lying, either do it well, or don't do it at all. Don't forget to vote for the funniest fibber!

UPDATE: We recreated some of the images because the original versions were pretty bad quality. That's why some of them have the same blurred profile pics. But as far as we know, all of the actual stories are real.

What do you think ?

Many of these are funny, but the underlying reality is very sad. Look at elections in Europe and America...people speak of the "hidden" or "silent" majority, ignore facts, believe what they want to believe, blame media for reporting biased, and consider whatever they find on social media true, as long as it fits their world view. Yes, this has been always the case when a bunch of friends meet at a bar and have a few drinks, but now it is global, and it does have impact. Add a few chatbots, social media analytics, and media strategists, and you can truly influence masses. I am very concerned where this will lead.
